We are thrilled to be working with the Cowboys and the Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport, two great organisations, to offer travellers a true club-level VIP experience right inside the terminal.”
Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport CEO Sean Donohue added: “Opening the Dallas Cowboys Club creates an exciting way we can elevate the customer experience at DFW Airport while offering customers a great taste of Texas tradition. The restaurant also enhances the longstanding partnership DFW Airport has enjoyed with the Dallas Cowboys, which includes three Dallas Cowboys Pro Shop stores in the terminals and a major merchandising warehouse.”
